that uncle sam is borrowing too much and spend doing much, which will slow future prosperity and buy us a system toward inflation. in the short run, excess liquidity from the fed may be good for stocks. in the longer term, it is not good for stocks or the economy, or your pocketbook. that's my take. we will talk about this at several points during the show with our fedex expert and our investors. now, first up, let's look at this triple digit gain and go to rebecca jarvis whose has the inside look at stock market central. hello. >> hello, the two day losing streak comes to an end and stocks hit their high just after the statement. you heard it on the economy. things are leveling out. traders read that as stable day, a hint of optimism. bullish news out of toll brothers. they went up 3.05. and we'll talk about it later on the show. you do see the upside all the home buildersment macy's beat expectations and raised guidance and said the new store concepts based more on regional taste are working. it got a big pop and since the march low, it's already up over 100%. from tech land, upbeat r

's rick santelli joins us now with a look inside the bond market. rick? >> thank you, tiler. it was a big up price down yield day for treasuries in response to the softness in the equity markets. as you look at this intraday chart of ten-year note yields, it's interesting to see. but what is really interesting is the five-year, the mid part of the curve led the drop in dwreelds and the buying that was going on by investors nationally, and globally. it had a sense of. but the ten-year by the end of the day, when equities had no bounce to put forth, did play catch-up and ended up ten basis points lower. the next chart, a couple months, you can see these lowest yields in about a month, july 13th, a month plus. now, the dollar was also part of the safety game today. as a matter of fact, for two reasons. on the one hand, the china story, lower equities. definitely puts a question mark in some of the aggressiveness or the future aggressive possibilities for commodities. so the tail wagging the dog, commodities, dollar denominee commodities moving down. but the dollar in and of itself is a safe

will be with us in a moment to help us discuss this, along with john tamney of real clear market. firstoff, pearson joins us now with the full report. was anybody surprised down there, hampton? >> the timing, yes, overall, probably not, president obama interrupting his martha's vineyard vacation to make the announcement appointing ben bernanke as second term of federal reserve. the president said ben bernanke has already made history. >> good morning, everybody. as expert on the causes of the "great depression," i'm sure ben never imagined he would be part of a team responsible for preventing another but because of his background, his temperament, his courage and creativity, that's exactly what he has helped to achieve. that is why i am reappointing him to another term as chairman of the federal reserve. >> and for his part, the fed chairman sounded like he was warming up for his senate confirmation hearing. >> mr. president, i commit today to you, and to the american people that if confirmed by the senate, i will work to the utmost of my abilities, with my colleagues at the federal reserv

market. they are driving the turn towards economic recovery. let us give them c. as for today's job market reports, this came in at minus 247,000 jobs there. was a 43,000 improved revision from the prior two months but the whole total beat the street consensus of $300,0300,000 loss. is it possible cash for clunkers is helping with manufacturing hours? we may see the first positive production report out in a couple days, this july, be the first positive one since last october. but in truth there, are negatives, i want to be balanced. the labor force is still shrinking, that is not good. jobs are still dropping, that is not good. i don't think today's 9.4% unemployment rate is going to hold as the peak. former labor secretary robert reich and last night's bullish jobs man joe lavorgne will hash all this out in a little while. let me again underscore my take on the new bull market and the turning point towards economic rebound. these are transformational issues that are changing the investment and business landscape. as for investors out there, you have earned a wee bit of optimism aft

democrats because we feel it's the first step towards government takeover of health car care. >> with us now is our dynamic you do woe, cbs contributor robert reich, whose book is called "super capitalism" and stev steven moore, "the end of prosperity." i have such a headache on this issue and i don't know who's going to pay for the aspirin. robert, i know you are in favor of the public option but should the president be pragmatic now that the polls are against him and saying it's not going to happen. should he give up. >> he should not give up because a public option is very critical. you have to have competition amongst the insurance companies, there is not enough competition. we saw monday insurance stock soared over rumors on the weekend the president is backing down from the public option. it's all about money and the more money they make, the more health insurance will cost. number two, the white house has to be very specific the president is not going to sign a bill that doesn't have this in it. all the waffling that's gone on over the last two or three days an waffling whether the pr

me. do you know which country in the world is the biggest tax haven? the united states. the u.s. government does not generally tax interests by foreigners who invest in america. if a foreign government came to us for that information we'd have no information to give them, the irs doesn't collect i. every foreign country can come over and say hand over information us to about our citizens, you made the swiss do it. that that. hugo chavez in venezuela stealing his citizens' property everyday comes to the u.s., these people are evading my taxes. hand that information over to me. you made the swiss do it by. this action, we give him the right to do that. you still don't think tax havens are about preventing tierney. remember why swiss banking privacy laws were strengthened in the first place to help jewish people hide their assets from the gustapo. i do not advocate people cheating on their taxes but tax havens help people keep their taxes lower by providing tax competition. no surprise countries like france and germany are the biggest complainers because they have the highest taxes

would suggest is if you look a little deeper, how can a significant chunk of one section of the u.s. be so convinced he's not a citizen and hence not a legitimate president? i would ask anyone rationally watching this show, and your viewers are rational, to try to impute what that view of this president implies to their view of his legislation. he promised to change health care in the campaign. >> you keep using a ridiculous poll from a crazy website. right now you're just waiting carbon dioxide on that one. this is not crazy anger. something you said during the last segment, oh, there's nothing to these death panels. any senator, any politician who votes for this bill without knowing exactly what those commissions are going to be doing, this is what congress always does so that they don't have the responsibility for covering abortion. i mean, the idea that democrats have passed a health care bill that doesn't cover abortion is -- you want nuts, that's nuts. >> we're not talking about abortion. >> they create all these commissions, like a death panel and congressmen vote for it and

think people are of the opinion that the worst lay behind us. we need to start thinking about how to proceed from here. >> reporter: doesn't mean we're out of the woods by any stretch of the imagination a. lot of debate, has policy worked? if it has, is it time to start scaling back? when to make the turn is also a very key issue here, when the fed should start raising rates and pulling back on some of the accommodation out there. also, the issue of growing deficit concerns when it comes to the treasury with trillion deficit. how does it turn into monetary policy? does it mean the fed has to be tighter? finally, call it trail talk, the issue whether or not ben bernanke will be reappointed. not an issue formally but certainly in the hallways discussed much on the trail. >> yeah. the water cooler discussion, as they like to say. >> water cooler. >> don't move. the news we broke on the incredibly shrinking deficit was confirmed by treasury secretary tim geithner as another sign this turn around is legitimate. >> the estimates of the deficit will be somewhat lower than we expected and

of this matters to those of us who are not from massachusetts because without either an interim successor or until the special election in january, the democrats are down to 59 votes. one vote shy of that supermajority that would allow democrats in the health care debate or for that matter in any other debate -- but health care is all that matters now here on the hill -- to cut off the debate. the anti-filibuster vote. whether they get a special appointment, that's the big question. will they get somebody to sit in for ted kennedy between now, let's say the end of september, if the state legislature of that liberal state changes the law and allows patrick to pick a democrat and a "yes" vote on obama health care. or will the democrats here on the hill and people back home in massachusetts, have to wait until january, even february, to have somebody fill ted kennedy's seat? that's the big question and it could maybe impact the health care vote and the plan we get for the country. >> the health care vote is the most important economic vote and probably the most important social vote. but senator ted

is chief u.s. economist at deutch bank. give me the bare outlines of your dramatic call, only 150,000 long. >> thank you. the call is at economic reflection points. the trend in payrolls tends to be significantly larger than we see in jobless claims which historically is a good leading indicator of the economy. i would argue the amount of job loss we have had has been so extreme, companies set up in a labor market with outlook that c will not come to pass and we will see a much lower area of deterioration. >> the key point, as i understand it, in splekz point, these things come on really fast, you're starting to sniff one out. let me just bring up here today, we got a very dramatic initial jobless claim decline. this is surprising, a lot of people thought because of seasonal things, automobiles, what not, initial jobless claims, the classic leading indica indicator would actually go up. now, going all the way back to match, this thing continues to slow down. you can see the slope get even steeper right in here. how does this in form your view? i think you said the monly july claims was sub

estimates of wall street traders. aagree. capitalist wall street has given us better than expected results. even with a slight rise in revenues, they will come heavy as economic recovery takes hold. a big profit push that will give stocks a lot more value and means the bull market continues well into next year in my judgment. it will get back to 1,000, go to 1100, and go to 1200 in the s&p. that is pre-lehman, that's what i want you to think about. that's why i'm more than happy with these market pullbacks and corrections that may or may not come. first-up this evening, speaking of the new bull market, today's slight pullback was healthy. let's go to cnbc's matt. hello, matt. >> interesting day, we had three economic data points before we even got rolling and investors chose to ignore the real surprise, an increase in factory orders and focus again on the preliminary jobs data, the adp, which has now taken on more and more respect ahead of the big one coming out friday. the adp an services data coming out weaker than expected and snapped the momentum in terms of improving economic
